When Eric migrated groff from CVS to git, he included a lot of pre-CVS history, and I'm sure would have included this had he known about it at the time. Eric, can reposurgeon retroactively add an earlier release to git without changing all the existing git hashes (which are referenced all over the place, in the bug tracker and elsewhere)? I know nothing about how these hashes are generated, so this may be utterly infeasible.
